Maddie braves the shave for FFF

Huge thanks to Maddie for braving the shave and raising an incredible amount of money for Freedom from Fistula.

"Years ago, when I was about 14, I watched a documentary about child marriage, and there was a section on obstetric fistula. It stuck with me. I knew I wanted to shave my head, but I hate raising money for charities when you don't know where the money gets spent. It was then I recalled the documentary and stumbled upon your website. When I read that your admin costs were covered by the Gloag Foundation, and saw the impact your charity was having, I knew it was the right choice. Obstetric Fistula is such a specific issue, but it is simultaneously affected by so many socio-political causes that supporting the right against it feels both tangible and important on a broader scale. I'm so glad a charity like this exists." - Maddie
